Thankfully architects from around the world heard about our plight and came to help us design our buildings. On this wonderful tour, you will also experience several memorials and the oldest living thing in our city, the great Treaty Oak. A fun addition is being able to ride in our luxury tuk tuk over our historic Main Street bridge. History, Business Architectural Achievements, Memorials and more. Your Downtown Jacksonville City tour has it all – plus hidden gems locals don’t even know about! Explore beautiful city landscape of Downtown Jacksonville and learn about the region’s rich and varied history at the beach and along the banks of the St. John’s River.

Great Tour of Downtown Jacksonville

Published on Jan, 2025

Toni was very knowledgable and very friendly. Great tour. The transportation was comfortable. We recommend this tour.

Fantastic Tour with a Knowledgeable Guide

Published on Dec, 2024

We’ve been living in Jacksonville for a while but didn’t know much about its history and charm until we joined the “Half-Day City Tour in Downtown Jacksonville.” Thanks to our guide, Steve, the experience was fantastic! His witty humor and deep knowledge brought the city’s stories to life, especially those behind the many remarkable buildings downtown. One tip for fellow travelers: check the weather forecast beforehand and dress warmly if it’s cold. Today was around 10°C (50°F), and we would’ve been freezing if not for the cozy blankets Steve provided. Highly recommend this tour for both visitors and locals!

Toni was absolutely incredible. She was SO friendly. She called about an hour before the trip (we got other follows up previously from them and Viator) to triple check arrival time, my knowledge of address, and tips of where we were headed. There was 4 of us total on the tuk tuk. We put in headphones and listened to her speak about the city. She knew everything- the architecture, food spots, history, traffic, events, you name it!! She was so friendly with those around the city (people at the fallen soldiers memorial, police guarding for the Veterans Day parade, etc). She was kind, informative and truly a joy to take the trip from! My husband continues to want to go on beaches vacations but I drag him to a bus tour all the time and this was top knotch!

Fun and informative
